My Jrotc Program

I investigated how cadets’ communication evolved while they were in JROTC and how they used word of mouth to achieve the program’s goals. Colonel Spry mentions that cadets’ discussions when they first start out in the program are not very serious in nature, but as they grow and move up in the program they begin to mature and have thoughtful discussions on how to solve a problem and what kind of plan it would take to resolve it.

JROTC has taught me about various value My loyalty was strengthened by eternalizing creeds and applying them to my life. One of the creeds that I memorized was The Junior ROTC Cadet Creed. Part of it says, “I will always practice good citizenship and patriotism.” Citizenship includes community service and at JROTC we have many opportunities to do so. So far, I have been in the Halloween parade, put up flags on 9/11, done flag detail before, and will be helping out and the

“How JROTC has prepared me to be a better citizen of the United states of America”. JROTC has prepared me to become a better citizen by teaching me how to use leadership skills and be able to cope with subordinates. It also has prepared me to be a better citizen by showing me what the 7 army values are and what they mean. Some of the army values are respect, honor, integrity, and personal courage. JROTC has showed me how to do things different from the way I thought things should be done and how to march and be able to keep a company and platoon together when marching. Since I know a lot about the JROTC I am able to help other people become better citizens like I was taught. I am also a better citizen because i have the discipline not to do certain things that I did before I took the JROTC class.

My experience in JROTC was great. Will help me to know more about the history of US, have patriotism, self-reliance and be responsible improve the ability to communicate oral and in writing have the knowledge of team building and basic military skills

Since freshman year, the Junior Reserves Officer Training Corps (JROTC) program has been an invisible hand of guidance that strived to bring out the best in me. This longstanding program has an impact on me in ways so innovative, it is impossible to find another program filled with diverse exhibitions of life lessons, discipline, and teamwork. JROTC has given me a lifelong readiness to combat the harsh realities of the real world that exist, which in return has helped me better myself and my community in contributions to being a citizen in the United States of America.

Honor, Courage, and Commitment are three core values that has changed me to become a better citizen. First of all, I follow the Navy core values, Honor Courage, and Commitment, outside of JROTC. Like; Being honorable, and having respect for others, treating everyone the same, no one is different and making hard decisions through my JROTC life. As a cadet, I learn from my mistakes. I see the world differently from others. I've noticed I always push myself to do better and I've been thinking about my life after high school, and who I want to become. JROTC is just a small step. When I first joined JROTC, I didn't expect such a dramatic change. Oh no, I didn't.

JROTC, also known as Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps, is a program that is offered in high school, which gives students an introduction to the U.S. Army. The main mission of this program is to motivate young people to become better citizens. This program teaches self-discipline, confidence, and pride in a job well done. It offers many challenges and opportunities which is surely able to increase one’s life skills and leadership skills, such as sharpening your communication skills, strengthen your self-esteem, and improving your physical fitness. Throughout its century-long history, multiple things had changed, while other things stayed the same, but the ROTC program will continue to remain as a promising existence for years to come.

Last Semester I was not really a good person because I lied a lot and didn’t tell the truth. I really wasn’t focused because I thought it was my first year so I could slack off. JROTC taught me that education is really important and that you should appreciate it because it’s free and like other kids you don’t have pay. JROTC really helped me become a better citizen because I helped lots of people and gave back to the community. We also did service learning projects to help with the community also like for the first service learning project we went to the nursing home for Christmas and helped set up a Christmas tree and decorations. And for the second year we did our own food drive to help families in need that don’t have food. Even though we

They challenged my capabilities, and made me overcome some of my worst fears. Excellence can come from breaking barriers, but it can also come from just chipping those barriers, or even nudging them. My four years in JROTC has taught me that as long as you are making progress towards your dreams, you are striving in excellence and self dedication. And even though your path may get rough, and have more obstacles in the way than ever before, I have learned to never give up hope and to continue to strive in motivation and

“I think one of the most important lessons we teach in JROTC is importance of service. And not just military service, but service… giving back to our school, our city, our community, our state our country, that’s given so much for us”

The study of ethics, citizenship, communications, leadership, life skills and other subjects designed to prepare young men and women to take their place in adult society, evolved as the core of the program. However, more recently, an improved student centered curriculum focusing on character building and civic responsibility is being presented in every JROTC

Have you ever thought of joining the JROTC? If so wait how about you learn the history behind JROTC first. In 1916, the Vitalization Act opened JROTC up to the other services and replaced most of the active duty instructors with retirees who would teach JROTC. High schools were given loan for federal military equipment and the assignment of active duty military personnel as instructors. JROTC has changed throughout the years. It was once used to find recruits and officer candidates. It than soon became a citizenship program to help improve moral, physical and educational strengths for high school students. It also made students learn discipline and order.

The JROTC is a place where men and women of high ethics and values are forged with care and sturdiness; it is a second home for many. The JROTC, short for (The United States Army) Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps, has been living in our school system for 100 years and has created various great citizens of our country since. The program has its roots in the National Defense Act of 1916 and its purpose has varied in the past 100 years from one thing to the other, yet the strive to make the best out of every single cadet has been engraved into the program and the people in it since day one.

Attending Troop N Camp Cadet was truly an experience that I cannot say enough great things about. The camp truly pushed me to my mental and physical limits, and because of that, graduation day was a day I will never forget. As I think back on this experience, many people stand out to me. One of the main groups of people was of course the advisors, which were helped by the junior counselors. I believe that I, being given the opportunity to be a junior counselor, would be provided with a positive experience for many reasons.

I was in the Laurel High School Jrotc program for two years. This is my first year in Interact. The jrotc program has taught me to respect other, obedience, and made me a better person. I was introduced to many different cadets in the Jrotc program and this guided me to help in the community.
